Marich All Natural Holland Mints & Chocolate Jordan Almonds
Last year I picked up the Marich Select Easter Mix. While I thought it was a beautiful assortment what I really wanted for that price was something equally cute but with more chocolate. I've been so pleased with Marich's expansion of their line of all natural and organic panned items, it's also nice to see them doing products more in the novelty area that still fit with that line.
So not only are these new All Natural Holland Mints just the right combo of mint and chocolate, they're also all natural. So my previous complaint about the artificial flavors and their aftertaste messing with the overall experience is gone completely.
Holland Mints go by a few names, depending on who makes them including Dutch Mints and Wedding Mints. They're a simple minty fondant ball covered in dark chocolate then a crisp candy shell.
Honestly, I wouldn't have known that these were all natural if someone didn't tell me. The colors are cool and muted but still vibrant and appealing: magenta, pale blue, pale yellow and white.
The version I had last year had a polished shell, these are a matte version which I actually prefer. They're smooth and cool on the tongue at first. I've mentioned before that these were what I thought the York Pieces should be like. It leaves me to wonder why I'm trying to make something from Hershey's into something else when there's already a product that fits the bill for me (and is priced far better than the York Mints that come in the tins).
I can eat them several ways. Sometimes I let the shell dissolve, then getting a smooth hit of the bittersweet chocolate then a powerful blast of the mint fondant. Other times I cleave the shell off to crunch it up and get to the chocolate quicker. Then there are days where I just feel like chewing the whole morsel up for a crunchy, sweet, chocolately and minty combo.
Marich's All Natural Chocolate Jordan Almonds are what I've always wanted Almond M&Ms to be.
They're a premium nonpareil almond at the center, fresh and perfectly roasted. Then it's covered in truly rich dark chocolate then a crispy candy shell.
They're huge, sometimes twice the size of the Almond M&Ms. They're also beautifully panned and consistent (something that M&Ms haven't been in the past 10 years or so).
Instead of the matte shell of the Holland Mints, these are a polished and shiny shell. The colors seem more intense though they're the same: magenta, yellow, light blue and white. I usually steer away from pink or red candies because of the foul bitter aftertaste of Red Dye #40, but these are all natural so all I taste are almonds, sugar and chocolate.
The chocolate is what stands out here, while it's not a thick layer, it's creamy and smooth without a trace of graininess or chalkiness. Yes these are more expensive than M&Ms, but they're just so much better. I hope these are a year round item from Marich.
I got these half pound samples from The Natural Candy Store but I've also seen them at Whole Foods in the candy case. I haven't seen them in the stand up boxes yet. Though they're all natural there are no statements about other allergens like Wheat/Gluten and they're not Kosher.

Godiva Shamrock Truffles
Saint Patrick's Day isn't exactly a big candy holiday. Potato and shamrock flavored candies, thought they exist, aren't exactly mainstream.
Godiva, who is always good at merchandising, has a limited edition Shamrock Mint Truffle. These dipped bonbons are right up my alley, they're a a classic mint ganache with Godiva chocolate chips enrobed in a dark chocolate shell and strung with a lucky green shamrock.
Godiva was kind enough to send a box of them to me, you can also get them as singles in the store. A box of 5 retails for $12. (The samples I got came in a box of six ... dunno why that was.)
The spheres are beautiful. I've mentioned before that I prefer enrobed chocolate over molded pieces, there's something about the tempering of enrobed chocolate that I think has a better mouthfeel. So these had me right away with their excellent attention to detail. The little clovers in a white chocolate colored light green were cute - the flavoring wasn't too sweet and didn't distract from the rest of the confection.
The pieces smelled mostly of minty chocolate. The whole thing reminded me of mint chocolate chip ice cream. The shells were thin and coated the cream filling expertly - none had any cracks or leaks.
The filling was creamy smooth with a light mint touch. They were sweet, but the dark chocolate did a good job of balancing it out. They really were the bonbon version of mint chocolate chip ice cream. The only hesitation I had with them were the colors - I don't know what the ingredients are but the center looks like it might have a touch of coloring in it, which makes it look like grout, not some sort of decadent peppermint ganache. There's no reason why this couldn't be a year round item (though I could see a little peppermint candy candy decoration for Christmas).
I ate the whole box with very little help: Happy Saint Patrick's Day.
Johnny also has a review of them.

Q.Bel Mint Wafer Bars
Last year a new candy bar line came to the market. They're from Q.bel and the initial launch was six different flavors with two different chocolate bar styles: Wafer Bars and Wafer Rolls.
This year they're expanding their line with two new bars. Today I have the Mint Wafer Bars. In the compact package are two wafer bars with a mint creme filling sandwiched between crispy light wafers covered in dark chocolate.
It's not a big package, though it has a sharp design that fits with the rest of their candy bars. They seem to have a color coding thing going on; as you'd expect this one is green for mint. Though there are two bars in there, it's still pretty light, only 1.1 ounces. The ingredients are all natural and have no hydrogenated oils or preservatives (though honestly, few candies do use preservatives).
The bars are about three inches long and a little under one inch wide. The dark chocolate coating is glossy, rippled and rather thin, just enough to seal up the wafers and cream. The dark chocolate coating is made in Belgium, but the candy bars are manufactured in The Netherlands.
The wafers inside are light and mostly flavorless, there's a slight hint of toasted rice (though they're made with wheat flour). The cream center is white and slightly cool on the tongue. The mint is very light and fresh with a slight note of real mint leaves instead of just peppermint oil. It's smooth for the most part with just a little bit of a tiny grain to it. The chocolate coating is deep and rich with a dry and bittersweet bite.
The combination is quite nice, not too sweet and refreshing. The portion size is insufficient though: I know, my Americaness is showing. I'd love the package to have three instead of two. But glancing at the teensy print of the nutrition label it is clear that each finger is about 95 calories. But that means that these are jam packaged with calories - that comes out to 173 per ounce. Mmm, crispy, minty and chocolatey fat.
The earlier Dark Chocolate and Milk Chocolate Wafer Bars featured crisped rice, while these just have the wafer planks and dark chocolate with cream. While this limits the crunch, it does mean that the cream and its flavors are more forward.
On the whole, they're very tasty. My only hesitations with them are the price (usually $1.50 or so) and how hard they are to find. I'm told that they're available at Whole Foods, but you know how WF likes to move stuff around to confuse their shoppers so I find it difficult to grab them on a regular basis.
The other new flavor is Double Dark Chocolate Wafer bars which feature 70% cacao chocolate and are actually vegan. I'll review those in my upcoming Vegan Week.

Choceur After Dinner Mints: Orange & Peppermint
So far I've enjoyed my latest bundle of Aldi confections that my mother sent to me from Ohio. Two of the heftier items in the package are the long boxes of Choceur After Dinner Mints. I quite liked the Choceur items I've picked up before, especially since they're nicely packaged into individual servings. (Each mint is 45 calories.)
The "mints" come in two flavors: Orange and Peppermint with the boxes handily color-coded in orange and green respectively.
I liked the orange box because it captures the holiday vibe without resorting to red and green. It's just an orange box with brown accents and a variety of white & brown snowflakes around the edges.
Inside the box it's rather like every other box of after dinner mints I've had, such as After Eight and the Divine After Dinner Mints (which was fair trade and also had a nice design). The Orange After Dinner Mnits box weighs a hefty 10.5 ounces, kind of like a narrow brick. Each piece is tucked into an open brown glassine sleeve. Each sleeve reminds me that it is the Finest Quality, as if there could be some little folders that didn't have that notation that contained sub-standard quality candies.
They're two inches long and one and a quarter inches wide. They're have a nicely rippled top and a decent chocolate scent with a touch of orange. However, once I bit into it the orange flavor is overwhelming. The dark chocolate has a thin layer of soft & smooth fondant inside. It's a "whole orange" flavor with both juice and zest notes and reminds me more of the Jaffa orange candies I've had from the United Kingdom. The chocolate texture is creamy has a touch of cocoa bittersweetness, but mostly the flavor here is orange and a pure blast of sugar.
It's a welcome change from the traditional mint and the orange does leave a clean and refreshed feeling. I liked them better in memory, not in practice though. I felt better about them after I was done while the zest was still kind of lingering, not while I was eating them.
Rating: 6 out of 10
The Peppermint After Dinner Mints are also pretty to look at, the dark green box is rather elegant.
The ingredients are pretty clean: Sugar, Chocolate Liquor, Glucose Syrup, Cocoa Butter, Invertase, Soy Lecithin and Peppermint Oil. (However, this is also exactly what the Orange ones say, right down to the peppermint oil.) They're made in Germany and feature the Aldi "Double Quality Guarantee" which means that if you don't like it, they'll give you your money back and another of the item. (You know, just so you can make sure you didn't like it.) Honestly I had no issues with the quality of any of their items ... it's often that they're just not to my tastes.
While I found the Orange ones far too orangey, the mint ones were just right. I felt like I could taste the chocolate, which was dark and roasty as well as the clear peppermint flavor. The texture of the fondant was light and crisp. It was like they were flattened Junior Mints. With more chocolate by proportion than a Junior Mint but packing all the minty power.
Rating: 8 out of 10
Though I liked the design of the box from a graphics standpoint, it wasn't actually substantial enough for something that holds so much candy. When the package is full and the stabilizing force of the shrink-wrap is gone, it was clear that the paperboard wasn't built well enough. The single flap of the top and the simple folded over edges meant that the box had to be picked up carefully, best with two hands when full, or else the top would fold open and the candies spill out. Serving from it is good but putting them out in a large quantity inside their little sleeves is kind of problematic as they're slippery.
Both are great hostess gifts and a really inexpensive item to include in a coffee when having friends over or easy thing to bring to an office to-do. (Note, I say they're inexpensive but I don't have the price info, so I can only guess that these are less than $4.00 for a box.)
These are not Kosher but are vegetarian and should be considered vegan (invertase is listed on the ingredients, which is an enzyme produced by bees, but for industrial food purposes is almost always made via yeast for cost savings).

Fannie May Mint Meltaway
It's November, there's a crisp chill in the air (yeah, it was in the fifties last night here in Los Angeles) which usually signals mint & chocolate combinations are in season. Last week I tried Dove's new Peppermint Bark. This weekend my eye was drawn to this Fannie May Mint Meltaway in with the holiday candy at Walgreen's.
First of all, I never see Fannie May all the way out here in the West Coast. Second, this was a drug store, someplace I didn't expect to run across a boxed chocolate brand. I know many readers have been urging me to cover Fannie May, so into my basket they went without complaint.
Fannie May used to be a fine chocolate company, founded in 1920 and based in Chicago. In 2004 they declared bankruptcy and were bought up by Alpine Confections who already owned a similar Midwest confectioner, Harry London of Canton, OH. In 2006 they became part of 1-800-FLOWERS. So they're not quite the tiny little boxed chocolate company any longer; this is what their website says:
So some of you caught that I said that they used to be fine chocolate. Well, read on and you'll see where I take issue with including them saying they're "fine chocolate" when they're not using the "finest ingredients."
The Mint Meltaway package is rather refreshing and easy to spot. It's a rather clinical white with a little pile of the candies isolated in the middle of the wrapper. The top and bottom edges have simple evergreen boughs and pine cone trim. There's actually only one piece in the package though the image shows three, but at 1.5 ounces, it's definitely not skimpy. The package describes the meltaway as Rich chocolate mint center drenched in creamy pastel coating. Wow, creamy pastel coating, can you tell how much my
mouth is watering at that? What is creamy pastel coating? Here's what takes up a portion of the back of the package:
You know what all that adds up to? 1.5 grams of trans fats. Most companies have mucked around with their serving sizes so that they can skirt in under the "you can say there's no trans fats if you have less than .5 grams in a serving" but Fannie May, well, she's bold. She's out there with a huge 240 calorie portion (160 calories per ounce) that contains 49% of my daily value of saturated fats. And those actual trans fats.
The block is two inches square and a half an inch high. The soft, matte & dull green looks like a bar of soap or a vintage fireplace tile. It has a soft peppermint scent, not menthol nasal-passages-clearing-strong.
The white coating is rather smooth and not at all greasy. It's not minty but also not really much of anything besides a texture and slightly salty. The chocolate center isn't a soft meltaway, it's a bit firmer, like a Frango. It melts quickly though, cool and chocolatey with a pleasant peppermint essence to it. After a while it gets a little greasy though, a little thin and watery.
The ingredients don't warrant the $1.39 price tag when I can get the Dove Peppermint Bark made with real cocoa butter just a little further down the aisle. Or if you don't mind the mockolate, just eat some Andes Mints.

Cool Honey Altoids
If you'd asked me a year ago if there were any more mint flavors that Altoids could come in, I would have said, "Nope, it's all been done."
I know, this is a really short review but it has a really big picture. I spotted these new Cool Honey Altoids at Walgreen's. I liked the prison stripes of yellow and black,oh wait, maybe they're supposed to be bee colors. It's distinctive enough I don't think anyone will mistake this for Ginger or Licorice.
I liked the idea of cool honey, like a cough drop version of Altoids. (Honestly a eucalyptus version might be good.)
They're lightly tinted, maybe a little yellow, I thought sometimes they looked a tad green. Perhaps absinthe! But the flavor? They're minty and strong but other than that I wasn't getting anything honey-ish out of them. They're milder than a regular Altoid, but lacking the complex flavor combination that I enjoyed in the Creme de Menthe version.
It's too bad, it was a nice idea. But at least the tin is cute. Gigi also reviewed them.

Dove Peppermint Bark
One thing that was missing in the Dove chocolate line was white chocolate. Well, Dove's new Dove Peppermint Bark Promises are the first step to remedy that. This new holiday version of Dove's foil wrapped bites of chocolate has special holiday tips on the wrappers from Martha Stewart.
I was a little hesitant to pick up this bag when I saw it at RiteAid last weekend. Of course I was excited by a real cocoa butter version of peppermint bark with white chocolate. As mentioned in our forum discussion about new holiday candy, I was hoping these would replace the Hershey's Candy Cane Kisses in my heart, which are no longer made with 100% cocoa butter. And of course I love that Promises are easy to eat and share. But they were priced at $4.99 for an 8.5 ounce bag. That's pretty steep for drug store chocolate.
When I opened the bag I wasn't blown away by a minty smell; actually I didn't catch much of anything as far as scent. But that's not a bad thing, it means that the foil wrappers are doing their job of not only protecting each piece but also keeping their mint out of other candies that you might throw in the same bowl. Each little foil wrapped piece is cute: silver foil with red and green polka dots. They're definitely easy to spot in comparison to the existing Promises line.
There's a dark chocolate base with a white chocolate topper. The white chocolate has bits of red and white peppermint candies mixed in.
The melt is great. The dark chocolate (not totally dark, there is some milkfat in there, like most Dove) melts a bit quicker than the white chocolate. It's a silky and fatty melt, slick and with some decent woodsy cocoa notes, but there's also a cocoa experience ... a dryness like eating cocoa powder. No worries though the white chocolate layer is sweet, also fatty and of course minty. There's a slight vanilla note to it and a bit of a dairy milk flavor with a hint of salt. The creaminess offsets the dry bite, as long as you eat the layers together.
The whole effect is a mint meltaway with a really tasty chocolate punch to it. Far and away better than an Andes Mint. The candy bits provide a good crunch (though I don't necessarily need them, but without them it's not a very convincing bark product.)
Price aside, these are awesome. They really fit the holiday season with the mint and chocolate combo. It's also available in an actual bark shape, but I haven't seen that in stores.

King Leo Dark Chocolate Crunchy Patties
King Leo is known for their mint sticks. Currently their branching out a bit and have a few new items. One is a line of Dark Chocolate Crunchy Patties in different flavors.
They feature dark chocolate and a fondant cream center, but the unique selling proposition here is crushed hard candy bits to give them a little crunch.
They come in a cute gable box. I liked it's simplicity - it's just a paperboard box, but looks cute and befits the classic contents. Inside the box is a cellophane bag with the chocolates ... not quite as elegant, but I'm sure much more efficient than the trays that Turtles usually come in.
I tried the Peppermint variety first.
They smell clean and minty with a little note of cocoa. While they're called patties, they're really not flat at all, they're like a half-round candy.
The chocolate is very thick but nicely tempered with a good crack but doesn't flake too much. The candy crunches are mixed in with the chocolate coating (pretty much just on the top).
The cream center is a mellow and smooth fondant - softer than a York Peppermint Pattie but firmer than the gooey version inside Junior Mints. The package shows that the center is pink, thankfully it's uncolored.
The mint is quite powerful and lingering. Each piece is pretty sizable too - about 3/4 of an ounce. So it's a good portion, it feels decadent and satisfying - and also comforting since it's not terribly fussy.
The chocolate isn't quite as creamy smooth as I would have liked, but it is real and if it weren't for the egg white they used in the fondant these would be vegan.
Rating: 7 out of 10
The next variety on my list is the Lemon.
The package is similarly themed with vertical stripes, this one obviously going with yellow. As an array the four varieties are quite attractive.
One of the issues of tossing enrobed chocolates into a bag like this is that they get a little scuffed up. These were shipped to me by Quality Candy, the company that runs King Leo these days, so they may be more bumped around than what you'd get in a store. (I haven't seen these in stores yet but they're supposed to retail for about $6.00 for a 6 ounce package.)
Unlike the Peppermint, these barely betrayed their cream flavor. They smelled a little like citrus oils, but mostly like sweet chocolate.
The centers of the lemon version were pastel yellow. The cream center is both tangy and sweet with a good pop of zest to go with it. The crunch in the chocolate and the comforting lemon flavor was pleasant and definitely different. The dark chocolate actually went very well with the lemon in this case - I got the distinct flavors of both without one winning out.
The cocoa flavors of the chocolate aren't the most complex, but they stand well to the lemony notes.
Rating: 7 out of 10
The Orange package has smart looking two-toned orange stripes that set off the chocolate photos and the gold logo much better than the other varieties.
I'm a sucker for orange and chocolate, especially orange and dark chocolate. But I admit that I was a bit dubious of the Orange ones going in, because I thought they were going to be more like an orange hard candy mash-up with some chocolate than a fine cream.
Opening the inner cellophane package, these smell like cocoa and a bit like peppery orange.
Like the lemon, the orange creams are tinted and slightly tangy.
The orange and dark chocolate goes well together and has a nice blend of both the citrus oils and the juicy orange notes. These were by far the crunchiest of the patties I had, which was quite refreshing.
I rather liked these two citrus varieties, especially as a summer chocolate treat because they didn't seem as sickly sweet.
Rating: 7 out of 10
The last package was Raspberry with riotous pink and magenta stripes & accents.
Quite simply, these smelled strongly of raspberry. It wasn't so much that it felt artificial, it was simply that it was strong.
When I took the photos, I had a little dish of my sample pieces that I usually enjoy after dinner. In this case I had the little dish sitting by me in the living room. I ate the orange and lemon ones, but left this one sitting there overnight (the bitten one, I ended up putting the whole ones away for later). Well, the next morning I came down to the living room and couldn't believe that one little candy could actually scent a room that size.
Scent aside, they're cute and a little flatter than the others. The center also seemed firmer and crumblier than the others.
It has the same light tangy quality and the interesting combination of the creamy and bittersweet chocolate with the crunchy candy bits. Overall it was far too much raspberry for me, but I enjoyed the simulation of raspberry seeds with the hard candy.
Rating: 5 out of 10
King Leo was founded in 1901 and is thought to be the oldest trademarked candy brand in the United States. They were bought out by Quality Candy Company in 2000. At that time the brand was just a line of peppermint sticks (three versions), since then Quality Candy has expanded the flavors and variety of products. They're made in state of the art facility in Tijuana, Mexico. (You can read more about it in this trade magazine article - warning PDF.)
Overall I liked them, but find the price point a little steep ... but then again looking over the ingredients they haven't mucked it up with too many unwholesome things - yeah, artificial flavors, but it's real chocolate and real vanilla. The initial offering of flavors is a good variety without being too weird so I expect them to do well.
Quality Candy sent me a huge box with one package of pretty much everything they make ... and I'm pretty sure they sent similar samples to other blogs, so expect to see a lot people talking about them for the next few weeks.
Candy Addict starts with their Choco-Crisps, Candy Yum Yum had some heat issues and put her Crunchy Patties in the fridge and is giving some away, Todo Candy has a great video that shows how humungo this box was.

Despite the rather boring tube design, I can see why this mascara is considered a classic. It has very buildable volume and length (it won't give you an extreme amount of either though), doesn't smudge or flake WITHOUT being waterproof, and washes off easily at the end of the day. It's not all that great at holding a curl, but it's not horrible at it so I don't have any real complaints. Overall, a very reliable mascara, especially for such a cheap price! Finally, a mascara that won't rip off my eyelashes but doesn't need to be waterproof to hold all day!
Notes: This mascara does feels dry, so it's not as easy to put on as I would prefer. The product likes to stick to the brush instead of your lashes, so you have to apply it with even, patient strokes before you're good to go. Also, I agree with the other reviewers; you really don't need more than one good coat of this, because adding more coats don't seem to do anything else. It's only good for a normal, natural look, it won't give you anything beyond that.

I wanted to wait before I reviewed this to make sure I was reviewing properly. :) This is a great mascara. WAYYY better than any mascara I have bought in the last year. I'm a mascara junkie, and I always fall for the hype. I have been trying alot of Maybelline's, L'Oreal's, and some other CoverGirl's, but they just don't compare to this lovely red tube of wonderfulness! My lashes are dark, look thicker, and separated without clumps.
Now I'm scared they will discontinue! Probably will go out and get a few more. I mean for $5? Yeahh....go buy it!
More reviews by revflapjackson
This is my holy grail. product does better than HE mascaras and wont put a dent in your wallet. I like most cg mascaras but this one is really a gem.
Ok, so I've been trying out different mascaras trying to find the perfect one so I thought I'd give one a chance. I wanted something that thickens, separates and keeps a curl. This did nothing. It takes like 4 coats to get it even remotely thick, it sort of separated but I had to use a pin to fix my lashes and it was horrible for keeping a curl my lashes just flopped even with a heated up lash curler.. The worst part was, after only 2 weeks of using it, it got all goopey and chunky and gross. Will not be wasting my time with that again.
First product review on MUA: The. Best. Mascara. Ever. I have tried them all. Max Factor 2000 was my go-to forever until it was discontinued. Absolutely everything flakes on me - oily lids, contacts, smudges. Except this. Two coats works beautifully for long and thick lashes. The tube doesn't last but the price is fine for that. I just can't believe it stays on. I've used it a bunch during the dreadful heat and humidity of summer and it lasts all night. Very impressed
I really enjoy CG Professional mascara (in the blue tube) and have repurchased it on many occasions, but I have an addiction and love of trying new mascaras. I finally purchased this one and absolutely adore it too. Adds impressive quantities of length, volume, and curl. Doesn't smudge, clump, or flake, and doesn't feel heavy or give me droopy lashes at the end of the day. Super impressed that a $5 mascara can achieve excellent results. This will be another one to add to my repurchase list.
I just ordered Cover Girl mascara and love it. It looks terrific
and truly lasts all day without running/smudging. Im totally hooked!!! The best part for me though, is that Im finally wearing something thats safe!!!

I really like this mascara. This is one of my favorites. I find one coat lengthens, and volumizes. I haven't had a problem with it flaking or anything like that. It also lasts all day. If you want a good inexpensive mascara, I would recommend you trying it.
I'm pretty disappointed with this product. I saw the mixed reviews and hoped to come back as a 5-lippy reviewer. Unfortunately not.
When I first tried this, I was really happy because my lashes were thickened without clumping, smudging, etc. When I felt my lashes, they felt almost like I wasn't wearing mascara - soft! I realized that when putting more than one coat of this that the mascara gets very flakey and made my cheeks covered with black flakes. Gross! Not to mention that adding coats literally makes no difference. Several flakes got in my eyes too (even with just one coat!) which was really annoying and, I believe, extremely bad for your eyes health. The package says that this product is good for people with sensitive eyes, but that can't be true at allll. Also, it takes more than just washing your face to come off, which is weird since it says that it comes off easily with soap and water.
Overall, don't try this product unless you don't care about keeping your eyes healthy and clean even though this mascara hardly volumizes especially after the first coat.
Absolutely love love love this! This mascara gives me super thick lashes that even high end mascaras fail to deliver!

Children's Art Cutting Board
October 22, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under General Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
If your kids are anything like mine, they are pretty prodigious when it comes to the creation of art. And while it might seem like this profusion of art will last forever, it really wont, some day they'll be too busy and too grown up for those sweet doodles. So here's a way to save some of your favorite drawings forever and make something useful in the process! These make excellent gifts for grandparents, aunties and uncles or even teachers as well so gather those drawings and get to work!
Difficulty level: Moderate
Time required: 45 minutes
Things you'll need:
Cutting board
Kids art
Trace paper
Wood burning tool
Things to do:
1. Lay a piece of trace paper over the drawing and trace it with your pencil, pressing heavier than you normally would to deposit more graphite onto the paper. If your drawing has words, you'll need to flip the trace over and retrace the image on the back side of the trace, otherwise you'll have a mirror image of the art.
2. Flip the trace paper onto the cutting board and color over the drawing, this will transfer the drawing onto the board.
3. Plug in your wood burner with a tip that will work well for your particular piece of art.
4. Trace the image using your wood burner. If desired, add a date and name and oil the cutting board with cutting board oil.
DIY Nature Wood Play Block City
October 20, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under General Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
We're big block builders in our family. Even as my kids start reaching out of the toy years, they still like to dig through that big old bin of blocks and build away. This project has taken that age old game to a new level, expanding on the creativity that makes their city-scaping so fun. And to add to the fun, let the kids sketch out the city blocks themselves and take over for the burning portion of the project.
Difficulty level: Moderate
Time required: 1 hour
Things you'll need:
Wood blocks
Wood burning tool
Things to do:
1. Sketch, or let your kids sketch, the basic elements of a building on the blocks. Mix it up, making some blocks have doors, some have windows, some work as roofs and some have whole houses or buildings on them.
2. Screw in the fine or chisel tip into the wood burner and plug it in.
3. Trace the lines that you sketched with the wood burning tool.
4. Once the basics are done, start embellishing. Add buntings, hash marks, dots and shutters to give texture and interest to the blocks.

It's that time of year again, Halloween! And when all those cute little costumed ghosts and ghouls come do your door, why not give them just a little fright when they reach for their candy with this fun little Recycled Egg Carton Candy Monster.

Difficulty level: Easy
Time required: 15 minutes plus dry time
Things you'll need:
Craft Paint

2. Remove the flap on the bottom half of the egg carton using the scissors.
3. Using glue stick, place the eyes to cover the holes on the top half of the carton.
4. Cut the paper into two jagged strips for teeth, just slightly shorter than the length of the egg carton.
5. Using the glue stick, attach the teeth flat against the bottom edge of the carton and inside the top edge.
6. Allow the glue to dry then add candy and get ready for the trick or treaters!

October 13, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under Fall Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
Looking for a spooky hairstyle for Halloween… something a little creepy, a little whimsical, but still fun? Look no further. This spider web hair clip seems to float on the hair, weighs almost nothing and looks creepy. Perfect for the spookiest holiday of them all. Change the size to suit larger or smaller heads or make small pairs to adorn pigtails or twisted buns. These are simple and fun to make, so why not make them for the whole gang?
Difficulty level: Easy
Time required: 10 minutes plus dry time
Things you'll need:

Wood Burned Clothespin Dolls
October 9, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under Kid's Arts and Crafts
I'm a big believer in kids using their imagination, so simple is, in most cases, better in my book. And when they get away from the technological wonders and buzzing, beeping toys, most kids will feel that way too. So these little dolls are right up my alley. Personalize them to look like your child or even allow the kids to draw the dolls themselves and take over for the burning part.
Difficulty level: Moderate
Time required: 15 minutes
Things you'll need:
Wood burning tool
Flat clothespins
Things to do:
1. Using your pencil, lightly sketch out the doll's features.
2. Screw in the fine or chisel tip on your wood burning tool and plug it in to warm up.
3. Trace the lines using the tip of your wood burner.
Make Your Own Glow in the Dark Playdoh
October 1, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under General Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
My kids are absolute suckers for anything that glows. And they are also sucker for playdoh, even though they are way beyond the preschool play time years. So what could be better than glow in the dark playdoh? Well, nothing! Perfect for summer evening fun, this dough is simple to make, lasts well in a sealed container and is buckets of fun. Be sure to store the dough in an airtight but clear jar in the sunlight so that the glow can "charge" during the day for plenty of glowing fun at night!
Difficulty level: Easy, but an adult needs to make the dough
Time required: 20 minutes plus charging time
Things you'll need:
2 T. Cream of tarter
1 c. Flour plus more for working the dough
½ c. Kosher Salt
1 T. Vegetable oil
Glow in the dark paint
Glass jar
Things to do:
1. Mix the first four ingredients in a bowl and then add 1 cup of BOILING water. Stir until you have a sludgy, smooth mixture free of lumps.
2. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface (it will be hot!) and knead, adding more flour as needed, until you have a smooth, elastic dough. Allow the dough to cool.
3. Re-flour your work surface and begin working in the paint, a tablespoon at a time, adding more flour as the dough becomes sticky. Check for glowyness occasionally by taking to a darker area of your workspace.
4. Once you've reached the desired level of glowyness, place the dough in an airtight, clear container (a glass jar works well) and place in a sunny spot to "charge up" for a few hours. Once it's nice and charged, turn off the lights and play away!
Clothespin Mermaids
September 19, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under Kid's Arts and Crafts
I don't know very many kids who aren't fascinated by mermaids and for good reason, they are pretty amazing as far as magical creatures go. These little clothespin mermaids are fun to make and even more exciting to add to your daily dose of play. Look for paint, craft foam and fabric that match or look good together and make a whole family of mer-people!
Time required: 20 minutes plus dry time
Difficulty level: Easy
Things you need:
Round clothespins
Blue acrylic paint or other colors of your choice
Royal blue craft foam sheet or other colors of your choice
Fabric scraps
Craft glue
Things to do:
1. Paint the clothespin from the split down with a color of paint that closely matches your craft foam and allow the paint to dry.
2. Cut fins from the craft foam.
3. Add details to the mermaid such as hair and eyes with paint or markers.
4. Tie a scrap of fabric around the mermaids body to create a top. Trim away excess fabric at the back.
5. Glue the fin in place and allow it to dry before playing.
Upycle: DIY Playing Card Notebooks
September 9, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under General Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
I have a pair of little scribblers here in my house. Always writing notes, drawing sketches, taking down ideas. And they love little notebooks to write their words and pictures in. These little playing card notebooks are so much fun to make and pocket sized for easy toting and perfect for their scribbles. I bet your little artists and writers will love them just as much.
Difficulty level: Moderate
Time required: 15 minutes
Things you'll need:
Blank paper
Double sided tape
Playing cards
Washi tape
Pencil or pen
Things to do:
1. Carefully trace the outline of the card onto the paper at one end. Repeat, running across the end of the page.
2. Fold the paper just at the top edge of the outline of the card so that when you cut them out you'll have a doubled card shape piece of paper.
3. Repeat until you have enough pages for your book. Fold each in half.
4. Cut the double sided tape into thin strips. Lay the tape at the top edge of one of the folded pieces of paper and top with another. Repeat until you have a nice stack of folded papers.
5. Apply double sided tape to the back side of two cards and press them onto the first and last page of the stack of papers.
6. Cut a piece of washi tape longer than the top of the card.
7. Lay it along the top edge and then fold over to the back to bind the book. Trim away the excess tape.
DIY Alphabet Magnets
September 3, 2014 by Jessica Christman
Filed under General Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
My kids love alphabet magnets, even though they are long past learning their ABC's. Spelling out words and messages on the fridge never seems to get old but (and especially as they get older and learn longer words) a basic set of letters really isn't enough. You need lots of every letter to really get a-spellin! This project allows you to make as many sets of letters as your kids need AND in the colors you like!
Difficulty level: Easy
Time required: 30-50 minutes plus dry time
Things you'll need:
Wooden letters
Acrylic craft paint
Tacky Glue
Things to do:
1. Lay out all your letters on a covered work surface and paint a base color on each of the letters.
2. Allow the paint to dry and add a second coat if necessary.
3. Using a contrasting color of paint, add dots, stripes or wiggles to decorate the letters.
4. Once this paint is dry, apply a small dot of glue to the back side of each letter and place a magnet on the dot. Allow the glue to dry before sticking the magnets to your fridge.

Filed under General Crafts, Kid's Arts and Crafts
We play a lot of cards in our family and, inevitably, we have ended up, over the years, with several incomplete decks from toting cards with us on trips or days out.

Difficulty level: Easy

Bloomberg News [1]: Proportion Of Vacant Homes Reaches Record Levels
A "record" 18.6 million U.S. homes "stood empty in the first quarter as lenders took possession of a growing number of properties in foreclosure." And the Census Bureau says the new number "is 5.7 percent higher than a year ago, when 17.6 million properties were vacant."
AP [2]: Security Breaches At Credit Card Companies Suggest More Security Is Needed
"While some of the biggest and most spectacular privacy breaches in recent years have happened at large corporations, state governments have also mishandled or failed to protect some of the sensitive information entrusted to them – data that identity thieves would love to get their hands on." But "most states don't have statewide privacy officers in charge of safeguarding data, statewide policies on protecting sensitive material, or standing procedures for responding to breaches."
MarketWatch [3]: Despite Bad Press Annuity Sales Continue To Increase
Paul Farrell writes, "The press loves trashing annuities, year after year after year. But what's really striking is how the critics are still hammering away at the same old problems, suggesting that all the bad press, criticisms, lawsuits and piñata whackings have had little effect on changing the annuity industry's bad behavior." While "there really are honest annuity companies and brokers out there. And annuities do work for many investors." But 'annuities have countless, hidden flaws that all too often remain undisclosed until it's too late: excessive commissions, lower returns, payout delays, surrender fees and long lock-ins." With commissions "as high as 14%," the annuities industry "attracts aggressive hustlers with questionable ethics preying on vulnerable customers, especially the elderly, a pattern that gives the rest of the industry a bad name."

Windows Downloads
I See You 1.5 94.1 MB This is the 2013 Halloween update of I See You. This version uses high res textures so it may not run well on computers with lower end graphics cards. There will not be a low res version. Sorry.
I See You Low Res (for crappy graphics cards) 35.5 MB If you downloaded the other version and saw some graphical errors (such as extremely low door ways or certain objects that just seem to be floating then this is the version you should be playing. That glitch is due to having an older or lower quality graphics card so this version has been optimized for the people that have them. A few of the graphics have been scaled down so theyre a bit blurry but It's far better than the alternative.
Inspired by I'm Scared
In this game, a person finds themself trapped in a hospital. Find the keys to unlock the doors and escape. Average Gameplay Length is about 15-20 minutes

what software do i need in order to open it once it is downloaded? im sorry i dont technology at all
CatOverlord 1 month ago
Download a program called winrar. It's free and you'll probably end up using it a lot more often than just to open my game. Once you open the .rar file you have to put the contents somewhere else on your computer before playing (like your desktop or a new folder). A lot of people don't do this and it messes up the ending.

Not without use of some third party software sorry.

Halloween Can Improve Your Mental Health
Many people view Halloween as unhealthy because trick-or-treat candy fuels an irresistible sugar fest, the beginning phase of winter weight gain. However, Halloween has important health benefits.
Halloween Spending Is Getting Scarier
Halloween spending hikes in this terrible economy is a real horror show! A recent National Retail Federation survey shows a record 170 million Americans plan to spend $8 billion on Halloween. You can get to know people better on Halloween.

Happiness Made Simple
There are two barriers separating you from your bliss:
He's Home for Lunch Now
Most women who take their marriage vows do so with the understanding, the unwritten agreement that their man will be home only: for dinner, weekends and holidays, and of course the occasional flu or sprain.
Honesty is a Great Stress Reliever
Conformity and suppression are energy drains. When we feel comfortable with ourselves thats a great stress relief! Stop apologizing for who you are. Here are some suggestions to be more honest:
Housecleaning Reduces Stress
As long as you have to clean your place, why not use it as a targeted method for coping with stress?
How is the Recession Affecting Your Marriage?
A reduced home equity has a negative impact on marital equity. If you want to fall in love again with your good friend and feel happier/healthier, here are some suggestions.
How Men Can Live as Long as Women
From the moment a male is born statistics show that on average he will live a shorter life span than a woman. He dies first because of the ideals of masculinity. Heres how to help him change his thinking.
How My Dog Trained Me
We all have a powerful ability to concentrate and tune out distraction, but we also have the shadow ability to disconnect from our feelings. My dog, Bailey, recently pointed that out in a humorous way!

PadGadget's DIY iPad Project Spotlight: iPad Speaker Buddy
I've been listening to NPR One for many hours through my iPad Air (yes, I know the app isn't optimized for the iPad, but that doesn't change the sound quality). Basically, I've been listening to the app from the moment I found out it existed until right now while writing this article. One thing I noticed is that talk radio is much harder to hear clearly than music without some kind of extra help on the iPad. I just connect it to my UE Boom and I'm ready to go. However, not everyone has a fancy Bluetooth speaker on hand. Sometimes, you have to work with what you've got.
Today's Do-it-yourself project spotlight comes from EnergyHandyman and we found it on one of the best places on the Internet for DIY projects of all kinds, Instructables.

The Funniest Comedy of All Time!
|Mel Brooks' monstrously crazy tribute to Mary Shelley's classic pokes hilarious fun at just about every Frankenstein movie ever made. Summoned by a will to his late grandfather's castle in Transylvania, young Dr. Frankenstein (Gene Wilder) soon discovers the scientist's step-by-step manual explaining how to bring a corpse to life. Assisted by the hunchback Igor (Marty Feldman) and the curvaceous Inga (Teri Garr), he creates a monster (Peter Boyle) who only wants to be loved.
"Rediscover Young Frankenstein if you haven't seen it in a while. It is a true classic. Karina Montgomery, Cinerina
"...Brooks at his campy best. Luanne Brown, Chico Enterprise-Record
"Undoubtedly the funniest movie ever made. Monica Sullivan, Movie Magazine International
"Brooks's most accomplished work, combining his well-known brand of comedy with stylish direction and a uniformly excellent cast. TV Guide
Editor's NoteAn affectionate parody that pays homage to the FRANKENSTEIN films (from the novel FRANKENSTEIN by Mary Shelley) directed by James Whale in the 1930s, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN is both a zany comedy and a cinematic tour de force. Written by director Mel Brooks and the film's star, Gene Wilder, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN has all the usual--and in this case slightly unusual--suspects: the reluctant scientist Frederick Frankenstein, who is actually the grandson of the infamous creature-creator (pronounced "Fronken-steen" and played by Wilder), his spoiled fiancée (Madeline Kahn), Igor the pop-eyed hunchback (Marty Feldman), his dizzy assistant (Teri Garr), the castle's hideous head housekeeper (Cloris Leachman), and, of course, the Monster (Peter Boyle). Highlights include the sets, which are the original ones used in the Whale films; the beautiful black-and-white cinematography; and the fine screenplay. Combining noirish elegance with uproarious sight gags and double entendres is a feat Brooks pulls off fabulously, directing the wonderful ensemble to act with sensitivity and humanistic feelings as well as with lunatic abandon. YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN is a treat from beginning to end.

A paradox of watching special-effects films in the all-fantasy-all-the-time CGI era is that you can go to the movies every week, especially in the summer, and experience things that really ought to seem magical — a man of steel zipping through the air, an endless zombie army shimmying over a wall, cracks opening in the earth as the world ends — and as entertaining as much of this stuff is, none of it, at heart, leaves you truly, deeply amazed, because eye-popping visual miracles have become so routine that they're simply the new normal. (How far we've evolved from the days of "You'll believe a man can fly!") But when you watch Gravity, a tale of floating astronauts starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, set in what used to be called outer space (and now might be called 600 kilometers over the earth), you may find yourself thinking, over and over again, "How the heck did they do that?" It's not because you're seeing anything that's all that outrageously fanciful. Gravity, though it's set in space, isn't really science fiction. It's a drama built around the technology of space travel as it more or less exists today. What's astonishing about the film is its hypnotic seamlessness — the way that the director, Alfonso Cuarón, using special effects (and 3D) with a nearly poetic simplicity and command, places us right up there in space along with the people on screen.
Tag: George Clooney (21-30 of 75)
'Gravity' trailer: In space, can anyone hear Sandra Bullock scream? -- VIDEO
From the first second of the just-released Gravity trailer, viewers are put right inside Sandra Bullock's space suit — and it's beyond terrifying. The actress relays a mixture of helplessness, fear, and confusion as her astronaut, Dr. Ryan Stone, goes hurtling through space with nothing in sight but stars and a distant Earth. She also has the dulcet tones of George Clooney's voice in her ear, but even that can't calm her down.
The two-minute-plus trailer is the longest look yet at the Alfonso Cuarón-directed space thriller, but we're still left wondering just what a feature-length version of this story will look like. Take a sneak peek here:
'Tomorrowland': Disney teases plot points as George Clooney film gets underway
Disney is officially cutting the ribbon on Tomorrowland.
The Brad Bird-directed sci-fi film began shooting a little over two weeks ago, and secrecy has remained tight on the project, which stars George Clooney and Hugh Laurie, and takes its title from the futuristic section of Disneyland. Today the studio sent out its start-of-production announcement, which confirmed a few plot points — but left a lot still unclear.
'The Monuments Men': George Clooney, Matt Damon steal art back from the Nazis
Here's a Nazi Germany story you may not know: There was a real platoon tasked with going behind enemy lines to retrieve art masterpieces stolen by the Nazis, and the men — featuring museum directors, curators and art historians –enlisted with that very idea in mind. "We've got to do our best to protect bridges, landmarks and art before the Nazis destroy everything," George Clooney's character explains in the trailer for the new movie The Monuments Men. Based on Robert Edsel's book, the based-on-a-true-story action-thriller has a lighter tone than most World War II Hollywood pictures.
In addition to leading man, the film will be a Clooney tour de force, which will feature the Oscar-winner also directing, as well as co-writing and producing. The dream cast will also star Matt Damon, John Goodman, Bill Murray and Cate Blanchett and has an Oscar-bait ready release date of Dec. 18.

'Gravity': Harrowing new clips of George Clooney and Sandra Bullock astronaut thriller
The desperate astronauts are reaching, scrambling, grasping at anything they can get their hands on.
They end up seizing on the viewer's throat.
Warner Bros. has released even more new clips from the upcoming Alfonso Cuaron-directed survival saga Gravity, with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as two space walkers cut adrift in orbit after an accident rips apart their shuttle.
Venice Film Festival loaded with American movies
Terry Gilliam, James Franco, and Errol Morris are among the filmmakers who will premiere their new movies in competition at the 70th Venice Film Festival in late August, it was announced today. Gilliam's The Zero Theorem (pictured above), which stars Christolph Waltz as a computer hacker close to cracking the code that explains humanity, is his first film since The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus in 2009. Franco directs himself in Child of God, an adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel, and The Unknown Known, Morris' study of former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfield, is the first documentary to ever compete in the main category at Venice.
Overall, there is a strong contingent of American filmmakers showcasing their movies, including David Gordon Green's Joe, starring Nicolas Cage and Mud's Tye Sheridan, and Peter Landesman's Parkland, the story of the colliding lives at Dallas' Parkland Hospital in the days around the Kennedy assassination in 1963. Seven of the 20 films in competition are American or co-American productions. "The richness of American cinema at the moment is really extraordinary," said Alberto Barbera, artistic director of the Venice Film Festival, "both from the indies and from Hollywood."
Also in the main competition are Stephen Frears' Philomena, starring Judi Dench, Jonathan Glazer's Under the Skin, with Scarlett Johansson, and Kelly Reichardt's Night Moves, with Jesse Eisenberg, Dakota Fanning, Peter Sarsgaard. Click here for the entire list. READ FULL STORY
Casting Net: Britt Robertson heads to 'Tomorrowland'; Plus, Max Greenfield, Gina Carano, and more
• Britt Robertson (Under the Dome) scored the lead in Disney's Tomorrowland, alongside George Clooney and Hugh Laurie. The film — which will be directed by Brad Bird (The Incredibles) and written by Bird, Damon Lindelof (Star Trek Into Darkness), and Entertainment Weekly's own Jeff "Doc" Jensen — is about "a high school girl with an unconventional understanding of technology" who "is launched on a journey to reclaim her future," according to a Disney press release. The movie is due December 12, 2014.
• Max Greenfield (New Girl) is officially back as Detective Leo! While the actor spilled the beans about his involvement in the upcoming Veronica Mars movie last month, director Rob Marshall sealed the deal in a Kickstarter backer email Thursday. "When I first reached out to Max about being in the movie, he said he'd do the movie for free and pay for his own travel," Marshall wrote. "This is only one of the many reasons I love Max. It's also why actors have agents. (Don't worry, SAG! We are paying Max!)" Greenfield also recorded a video message for his fans before he started filming.
John Goodman on his 'Monsters' hit, working with George Clooney again, and a return to 'SNL'
For a ubiquitous character actor who's been working pretty much non-stop for 30 years in movies and television — including a heralded nine-season run on Roseanne — John Goodman is in the midst of one of the most successful stretches of his career. His most obvious score is Monsters University, the Pixar prequel to the 2001 smash that opened this weekend with $82 million, making it the fourth biggest animated-film debut in history. Goodman's blue-furred Sully reunited with Billy Crystal's one-eyed, walking green-pea Mike for the story of how the odd couple first met in college — when Sully was a lazy BMOC and Mike was an overachieving go-getter intent on becoming the scariest of Scarers.
But then there's also Goodman's recent on-camera work, which has included supporting roles in the last two Academy Award Best Pictures winners — The Artist and Argo — as well as a scene-stealing appearance opposite Denzel Washington in last year's Flight. Throw in upcoming roles in the Coen brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis and George Clooney's World War II drama, Monuments Men, and Goodman just might be on course for an elusive but long-overdue Oscar nomination. (See also: Barton Fink.) "Right now, I'm at the high point of the roller coaster, but it's always going to dip," says Goodman. "So I'm just out there trying to enjoy it while it lasts."

'Gravity' trailer: George Clooney and Sandra Bullock are stranded in space!
It's been a long wait for anyone following the development of Alfonso Cuarón's space thriller Gravity. The film, which stars Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as astronauts on a Space Shuttle mission, was originally set to be released in November 2012, but despite years of buzz, it wasn't until this week that some footage from the movie finally hit the web. Now, we have the film's first trailer.
In the spot, Bullock and Clooney bask in the striking view of Earth, while some soft piano and violin set the scene for the beautiful and serene surroundings — until everything changes. The space shuttle is destroyed while the two astronauts are on a spacewalk, and they're left stranded in 372 miles above Earth.
